Using ANSYS Topology Optimization to Produce a Bioinspired Organic Lattice Wing Interior Structure to Reduce Weight

- Aircraft make use of airfoils to generate lift creating stresses inside the wing.
- When un-managed these create stress concentrations which shorten the airframe lifespan.
- Ribs are not inherently structural but rather transfer lift forces to the spar.
